For The One I Can't Have

It doesn't make sense
And it isn't right
 
This love, this feeling
It isn't right
 
Your heart is taken
Honestly, I doubt you care
 
She's pretty and
She's yours
 
I am a shadow
Swept underneath
 
Like two like one
Like you like me
 
I'll settle for this
This distance
 
It's okay because
It isn't right
 
We are as different
As we are the same
 
Wishing I could describe
This strange feeling
 
Content with being
Not content 
 
Is this what it does
Is this a form of love
 
Does it scramble your mind
And trick your heart
 
You can't be mine
That's okay because
 
This isn't right
